Kiarra looks back on her time in the Coatesville Area School District fondly. She said, "The education I recieved at CASD has truly shaped the person I am today. It gave me a value in diversity, relationships, pride, and family. From my beginnings at East Fallowfield, Benner and Gordon to my development and South Brandywine and the High School Campus, I was able to develop my skills in leadership as a staple in student council, especially serving as junior and senior class president and in the performing arts. I could develop and love everything I wanted to be a part of from athletics to music. I truly appreciate all the offerings I recieved. In the classroom I was challenged through rigorous curriculum, but had such a loving support system through my teachers and administration. It equipped me to succeed at NC State University and now at Duke University. Coming to North Carolina, I have learned that the pride and tradition of Coatesville is truly unmatched. I am so thankful to have been a part of the CASD."
